The "2nd fiddle to Vardy" school of thought seems to miss the fact that IF he was as good/a better option than JV at any point, he would have been our main striker? He isn't, so he wasn't. And when given the chance to prove he might be, he clearly didn't do enough. There's a reason we didn't build a system around him like we did JV. And for the "better goals per minute" than Aguero.. There's also a reason they sold us Kelechi Iheancho and not Kun Aguero.. they (Nacho and Vardy) are 2 completely different players, and the way we've played for years is towards Vardy's style of play. Plenty of players wouldn;t have got in ahead of Vardy in his pomp despite being excellent different sort of strikers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_favourite Posted 24 August 2023 Share Posted 24 August 2023 Ultimately, we needed to shift a striker. We haven't and Leeds look like getting their man and a player they need. You can't win them all 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Man City sell us Aguero moot argument. Well the point made was that Kelechi Iheanacho had a beter GPM ratio than Sergio Aguero, so why on earth would they be selling him to us and not letting us have the striker with the worse ratio instead..?

He had 14 shots on target from a total of 31 shots and scored 5 goals (6.02 xG). Kelechi Iheanacho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fox_favourite Posted 24 August 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 24 August 2023 (edited) Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls...don't waste your energy on this, it really isn't worth it. Nacho is our striker and detective Piroe isn't. We move on. No need to get vexed (if that is still a cool word to use) about him going to Leeds. Safe, yeah!

Plenty of players wouldn;t have got in ahead of Vardy in his pomp despite being excellent different sort of strikers But the point still stands, we built a system that suited Jamie Vardy because he was our best attacking outlet. When he began to fade why didn't we do the same for Kelechi Iheanacho, or even more to the point, when we saw Vardy not being able to play every game/his levels start to decline didn't we have a plan B that suited Kel? The fact is he has always been on the periphery because he hasn't shown the ability / consistency to be our first choice striker. I don't know what anyone has watched to suggest he has? Occasional flashes haven't been enough for him to really cement a place and now he's in the last year of his contract, possibly walking for free at the end of the season.
